Comfy washable chair?

My sisters FIL is in a really nice residential care facility. He's 96 got age dementia and has developed bladder incontinence. Although the carers regularly clean his seat cushion it's still unfortunately left a bit 'whiffy'.
Any suggestions for best company to buy from, or type of chair ? The family are looking for something which is comfortable for him to sit in, easy to get out of, easily cleaned.
Anything complicated with remote movement is out as he's forgotten how to use the remote TV switch due to dementia.
BIL has sent away for brochures but they all look similar to what he has already which is patterned fabric. Cost isn't the main priority.
thanks

There are specialist suppliers making chairs with waterproof upholstery who supply care homes and hospitals. His care home may have a brochure or be able to point you in the right direction. Another option is to contact your local incontinence service for information on manufacturers..................
